DESCRIPTION:
"Jake the Model" - King Vitamin 1994
When you chose to blink the eye
Did the silver flash make your make-up slide?
You're their God sent rose, dream millennium child
A world hero, in every single pose
You were trapped in the frame of what they see
The only life you live is on their TV
You never had a choice, since 13
Gotta say what they want and keep your nose clean
Oh no, oh whoa no,
La na la no, la na no
Our Jakes not well...
When they pull the strings you're like Brando did
You're so full of life but you don't live
The only life you knew cut short for you
When the photographer reloaded, you knew what to do
Oh no, oh whoa no,
No la na no, La na no
Jake closed his eyes...
When the news came over that Jake was dead
The companies cried and a wired world wept
A flood of freaks ran the streets, searching for a leader
A new piece of meat, cos' in a land of satellite minds
When a star burns out they close their eyes
With one bullet their legend died
And all they could say was "Oh no why?"
They don't know...
Oh whoa no,
La na la no
La na la no
Jake wants to fly, yeah yeah
Jake wants to fly
Jake wants to fly
